From llij:
i also feel harassed and confused by Mass. Rehabilitation in boston.
Mass  Rehab seems now to be angry with me for going to college (not
financed at all  by mass rehab--loans and pell).  Prior to this Mass.
Rehab was supportive  about school.
Ticket to work sent a letter stating that I signed  something in 2007
about my projected plans in the next few years.  They claim  that next
year I will "not be excused" from a medical review if i am not  making
the "progress" that I signed on for.
I was not even aware that  my Mass Rehab. activities had anything to do
with the ticket to work.  I was  not aware that I even signed anything
with the ticket to work.
I wish  to be as active as possible but I think this scary letter (I
have a mental  diagnosis) has had the effect of sticking an ice pick in
my brain.  I am a  wreck.  I have had other problems over the last few
years and am not in good  shape anyhow.
Has anyone else gotten a scary letter from the ticket to  work lately?

If you expect the gubbermint and burrorats to treat you 
fairly and with  respect, you're delusional and need to up 
your meds.
The ticket to  work is a farce, a bill designed to put more 
burrowrats on the gov. dole and  for private companies to milk 
the gov. while offering little or nothing to  disabled.
It has been some time since I read the TTW provisions but I  
believe there is a provision that prohibits them from doing a 
review  once you are in the TTW program. But they play fast 
and loose with the  rules. Remember these are burrowrats, they 
lack intelligence and they are  drunk on power.
Find a disability lawyer to help you, try legal fake aide  if 
you cannot find a private lawer or take them to court pro se.
You  cannot control what these morons do, so there is no sense 
getting upset  about it. Fight back, that's the best course.
Why do they think you're  not complying with the program 
goals? Do you have a copy of the goals you  supposedly 
committed to? Did you even sign an TTW agreement? You're not  
giving enuf details for anyone to help you.

If you question as to whether you've signed something in 2007, you have the  
right to ask them for a copy. I think (Jack please correct me if I'm wrong  
here) that you could go to your local SS office and ask to look at your file  
to see the exact paperwork they're discussing. Seeing it might help you  
determine if going to school was part of your plan... or if your plan can be  
renegotiated. Otherwise, if you have a mental diagnosis, just get your ducks  
in a row (make sure your doctor, counselors, etc. are willing to state you  
are still disabled. If they admit to any hesitancy to do so, it will give  
you the opportunity to tell them why you feel you are still disabled.
